Abstract

The South Indian music with its peculiarities, characteristics, has a very rich tradition, culture from ancient times. Carnatic music underwent many changes in the hands of different musicologists who gave it the status of a Śāstra. Vāggēyakāra-s are the composers who exhibited the richness of Carnatic music through their compositions. The efforts of Lakṣaṇakāra-s (Musicologists) and Vāggēyakāra-s combined together helped the art to preserve its divinity and tradition. One of such great Vāggēyakāra-s of modern times was – ‘Sangīta Sāhitya Kaḷānidhi’ Śrīmān N.Ch.Kṛṣṇamāc̣ārya (1924-2006).
‘Garbha kṛti-s’ are a unique contribution of Śrī Kṛṣṇamāc̣ārya to the field of music, wherein the same lyrics of a kṛti could be set to more than one tāḷa structure by reducing a few sāhityākṣara-s and still making meaningful sāhitya, completely adhering to the prosodical rules.
The present paper focuses on the concept, structure and analysis of these Garbha kṛti-s of Śrīmān Kṛṣṇamāc̣ārya.
